Thanks Greg! This is finally starting to be a little "fun"!!!! It's pretty exciting to be putting out a product that Kevin has completely gone thru and we KNOW will be a superior airframe!

Lots of great things on our horizon! We look forward to sharing many big things with the model aviation community this coming year!!!!

and hey, one a side note.... your 55center is bigger than a Miata! LOL

Here are some pics of the motor box and side sheeted fuse. It is coming along quickly but the framing always seems to.

I've been wanting to get back into building and this looks like the ticket, man something about a plane just in the bones is awesome, you almost hate to cover it up. Kevin and Matt I'm afraid you guys are going to very busy hopefully I can get one of the 35% Extras sometime after the holidays and get it started. Thanks for a great looking product, we need more people like you in this hobby.

I can say without a doubt that Matt and Kevin have been the nicest and most helpful people I have talked to as long as I have been building. I have been working on this kit for five days and I am already trying to decide what kit I will buy from them next.

Thanks for the "Props" John!

We are looking forward to being able to continue the service that you are receiving with all of our customers! We hope to able to grow this company from a Service perspective just as much as a Product persepective. As we have said in earlier posts, the product, as great as it is, is only as good as the service that comes with it! Our attitude and focus will not waiver in either aspects!

Your build is lookin' great John! Keep the pics coming!

Matt

This is the fast and easy part. It's the finishing that slows me down I tried to send you a pm but your box is full.

Matt,
I've gotten started on my 35% Velox kit and need a few parts I couldn't find in the kit. Just wondering if you have parts available? I need the ST-1 parts. These are the ply stab inserts in the rear of the fuse for the stab tube shuck. Thanks.

I don't think I have all the cowl ring parts iether. Build thread is on RCU, Giant Sacle Aircraft-3D and Aerobatic for anyone that wants to take a peek.
